I have heard DBL distributors requires a tax seller ID, but not many of the others. Try Link hidden: Login to view for instance and browse for yourself.

To get an ID though, you mostly have to go through the city and fill out some forms. I am uncertain if tax forms would work. I don't think they would, and in any case almost nobody wants to deal with the IRS and they seem to live off people's tax problems.

To set up a federal tax ID number (also called an Employer Identification Number, or EIN), contact your nearest Local IRS Field Office, or call the IRS Business and Specialty Tax Hotline at 800-829-4933.

The form you'll need to fill out is IRS From SS-4 and you can download it directly from the SBA Web site Link hidden: Login to view.
